Saints have the ability to win it in 2006. Then again they had the ability in 2005. And 2004.
Next year wont be all interstate grand final.

Not Until Fremantle have been arranged to win one and probably one for West Coast, then we will be due to send the Cup to Adelaide.
Or are we destined to give the Sydney Swans 3 or yes of course give them 5 and make them the greatest manufactured sporting club !!! sorry franchise in Australia.
Next year Sydney v Melbourne win number 2 for Swannies
The year after Sydney v Brisbane win number 3 for Swannies
Four in a row yes Sydney v Collingwood win number 4. Chris Judd installed as Sydney Captain by the AFL.
Five in a row Sydney v England for win number 5 and the Ashes can be included as well.
But the AFL may then look around

The cup wont be walking on vic land for a while now. West Coast and Sydney are at their peak. they will be there for a few more years. Freo should be there in the next couple of years. By the time these clubs are declining Brissy and Port would have rebuilded and will be powerhouses again. adelaide well they will continue to rely on mark riccuito until he is about 70. they may as well become a vic because they wont win nothing.

Cant see too many of the present Vic clubs looming as a threat for the next couple of years at least.
Bout time for a couple of mergers Bulldogs /North, Saints / Hawthorn.

Hopefully Geelong or Saints in the next two or three years. Bulldogs might not be far off either though that'd be a real turn up!

If not anything else hasnt this year shown everyone how close the comp was at the top!!....... adelaide were a kick away...as were geelong and the saints.
If bulldogs had made the eight would of given it a crack and richmond with nathan brown are a force(sorry guys but u did fall apart after he departed).....and as we all know west coast got within a kick(Well a kick from some sort of forward anyhow ha ha).....I believe the competition is alive and well if only they would fix that joke of a
tribunal.......that is the only thing ruining the game!!!
Just like this year it'll all boil down to which side can get into the top 4 and get a dream run (like Sydney) with injuries. Go back to Febuary this year, nobody would've picked Adelaide, Kangas or Swans to be up there. These teams had dream runs with their lists. West Coast ran into injury troubles at the business end and went down by a kick. Saints overcame injury worries to make top 4 but couldn't get through a prelim final without Hammil, Kosi etc.
I'd expect WEagles, Saints and Cats to be the dominant teams over the next 3 years given luck with injuries.

Well done pie35 that is the most sense any of these threads have ever made.

it should be next year with the saints having the best list by a mile(but they will choke again) Geelong and the bulldogs should be good next year aswell

OK so St Kilda probably should have done better throughout the season given the quality of their list. But just when they finally got their act together towards the business end of the season they were crippled by injuries. Had they not lost Koschitzke and co. they would have given it a good shake and same goes for next season.
At the end of the day, with the list they've got, it'd be unthinkable for them not to win one and soon. I would put them ahead of Geelong and West Coast simply on the strength of their forward line. Just the same as Port in their under-achieving days, you've gotta think it's only gonna be a matter of time before the Saints win one.
The heart is tipping Brisbane for 2006 but the head is tipping the Saints.
